KCET, Television station in Burbank, Los Angeles, US.
KCET is a television station based in Burbank that broadcasts on channel 28 and reaches the entire Southern California region. It transmits from broadcasting facilities on Mount Wilson in the San Gabriel Mountains.
The station began broadcasting in September 1964 as an educational television channel, funded by local commercial broadcasters and government grants. It was established to offer programming alternatives to commercial television entertainment.
The station produces educational content that reflects regional interests and everyday concerns of viewers. Its shows focus on local stories and community issues that matter to people living in Southern California.
Viewers can access programming through multiple ways: broadcast television on channel 28, streaming on the internet, and mobile applications. Reception options may vary depending on your location in Southern California and available equipment.
In 2011, the station sold its original studios on Sunset Boulevard to the Church of Scientology and relocated to new facilities in Burbank. This move marked a significant turning point in the broadcaster's physical infrastructure.
